Ingredients

4 (1/2-inch thick) swordfish steaks, thawed, if frozen

1/8 teaspoon paprika

1 tablespoon lemon-pepper seasoning

1 tablespoon dry white wine

2 tablespoons butter

1 tablespoon freshly chopped parsley leaves

Directions

  1. Rinse the swordfish with water and pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle each steak lightly with paprika on both sides. Then sprinkle each side of steaks with lemon pepper seasoning. Let steaks sit for 20 minutes before grilling on barbeque. Combine the white wine, butter and parsley in a small bowl. Lightly baste each steak with the wine mixture. Cook swordfish for about 5 to 10 minutes on each side over hot coals or on the gas grill. They should be tender when tested with a fork. Allow fish to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

I made this recipe last night and it was the best swordfish ever! Used exact ingredients and grilled about 3-4 min on each side. It’s simple but delicious. I really think the paprika and lemon pepper rub are the key here. Although everything’s better with butter. Thanks Robert for a great recipe. A “keeper”!
